Then you factor in the people in something like a smaller-sized full orchestra could be about 10-15 violin I, 10-15 violin II, 8-12 viola, 8-12 cello, 5-8 bass, 2 of all the woodwinds, 4 horns, 2 trumpets, two trombones, a tuba, then 4-5 percussionists. To hire something like an orchestra for just the musicians alone, without even factoring in time/location/recording equipment could end up anywhere between $300-$500 per musician just for a one day recording session (which will NOT be enough) conductor about 4-5x that amount. I can give you a ballpark estimate on musician costs though. ![]() ![]() Not sure on the total costs in money terms, but you go from hypothetically needing 1 person (composer who can sound engineer and eq) to needing things like composer, studio, hall, conductor, back-up conductor who's done the proper score study in case something goes wrong, freelance instrumentalists or a paid ensemble, recording engineer, studio mixers, sound master, mixing studio, arranger, post-production team, and more.Īnd while freelance studio musicians are cheaper than ensembles most of the time, their quality isn't as known as an already formed ensemble.
